About this work

This print shows a man’s face in ink. It’s a portrait made by E. Matthews & Sons around 1890. The museum calls it part of the H Beard Print Collection. Arthur Sullivan is the man in the picture. Sullivan wrote music for Gilbert and Sullivan operas like *The Mikado*. That’s the fun part—you might know his tunes even if you don’t know his name. Check out more prints at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
